[arch/i386/kernel/traps.c]
void die(const char * str, struct pt_regs * regs, long err)
....
                handle_BUG(regs);
                printk(KERN_EMERG "%s: %04lx [#%d]\n", str, err & 0xffff, ++die_counter);
#ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT
                printk(KERN_EMERG "PREEMPT ");
                nl = 1;
#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
                if (!nl)
                        printk(KERN_EMERG);
                printk("SMP ");
                nl = 1;
#endif
....

no way the PREEMPT and SMP string be in the oops without the config
option turns on.

No, that's fine. the kernel code is not going to be migrated at all.
